Abstract
The effect of low-dose-rate red and near-infrared radiations from the matrix of light emitted diode (650 nm and 850 nm) and a He-Ne laser (633 nm) on activation of the reserve of a natural defense system in the mice exposed to radiation in vivo was studied by the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in blood cells, the induction of cytogenetic adaptive response in bone marrow cells, thymus and spleen, and the rate of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma growth in a solid form. As a positive control animals were irradiated with X-rays by the scheme of the radiation-induced adaptive response (0.1 Gy + 1.5 Gy). The levels of ROS production was assessed in whole blood by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence, of cytogenetic damage — by the “micronucleus test” in the bone marrow, the weight of the thymus and spleen — by index of organ, and the rate of tumor growth — according to its size for 30 days after inoculation. Adaptogenic and anticarcinogenic effects of studied radiations were revealed. The values of these effects were not different from those in animals pre-irradiated with the X-rays. The relationship between the level of ROS production and adaptive response induction in the mice under the influence of non-ionizing radiation was first ascertained. The experimental data obtained may indicate a similar mechanism of induction of protective responses to ionizing and non-ionizing radiations in mice in vivo.
